These are close to being the best motorcycle jeans. Nothing will look as good as my Death Killer jeans, but the DK jeans are horrible to ride in, and suddenly dont fit my thighs anymore.

The Lombard jeans look and feel great when riding. Ive used them on several trips, sometimes even underneath a roadcrafter suit. They never restrict my movement or bunch up behind my knees. They look great around the office, and dont make me feel like an armored goon.

The sizing is totally goofy. I normally wear a 33, so I took the advice here and ordered a 36/36. The length is ok, but the waist is way too big. The lower leg also has a bit of a flare at the bottom that I dont like at all.

Theres also a thread looping out on the inner thigh, doesnt seem structural, but for the price I was bummed.

Michelin Pilot Road 3 Rear Tires Building on the tremendous reputation Michelin has built over the years, the Michelin Pilot Road 3 Tire is the successor to the award winning Pilot Road 2. With the Michelin Pilot Road 3 Motorcycle Tire you are really getting 2 tires in 1, by integrating a soft rubber compound on the tread shoulders with a wear-resistant compound down the middle, Michelin gives you the best of both worlds. The Pilot Road 3 is a dual compound sport-touring radial tire. Revolutionary X-Sipes technology maximizes wet traction Michelins newest technology delivers all-weather performance without compromising tread life or handling Patented innovation resulting from years of research and development Sipes increase the tread's drainage capacity Sipes generate pressure at the edges of the sipe blade, which helps to break through water film Two compound technology combines tread life and cornering grip 2CT incorporated into all tire sizes, front and rear Wider soft-compound shoulders on the front tire, compared to its predecessor High performance and environmentally sound 100 non-aromatic-oil rubber compound Note Sizes denoted by B are designed specifically for loaded sport touring bikes, or for riding two-up.

2012 KTM 990SMT. These tires are a huge upgrade over the old stock Conti Attacks I had. Broke them in while riding doubles for 600mi over the course of 2 days this weekend. Loved every minute of it.

No idea about tread life or wet traction yet. Just got em.

Rides: 2012 Ducati Monster 796

Yes, I recommend this product.

I have large thing hands, so I have a certain amount of "deal with it" when buying gloves. I have come to expect a high level of quality from Dainese.

I was pretty bummed to find out that the ring fingers were sized differently on each glove. The left ring finger was too tight, and the armor squeezed uncomfortably against my knuckles for the first hundred miles. They are beginning to break in nicely due to the softness of the leather.

They get amazing airflow for being black leather, and my hands are not usually sweaty.

I ride 5 days a week. I look forward to these breaking in nicely. Great lightweight leather gauntlet, doesn't make me look like a power ranger, but still feel protective.

Klim Tactical Short Say goodbye to the days of chafing and other riding maladies associated with loose-fitting riding shorts. The Klim Tactical Short is designed to keep your equipment stowed properly and to wick moisture away from your skin to ensure maximum possible comfort on your ride. The saddle area is constructed with a high-tech triple-density chamois that will help absorb riding vibrations and cushion your ride. PORON XRD Extreme Impact Protection material is embedded in strategic locations to help absorb impacts. On impact, the PORON XRD high-performance molecules create a unique protective shield that can repeatedly absorb up to 90 of the most intense force. Features Poron XRD extreme impact protection material on sides and thighs and over tailbone Padded compression short Moisture-wicking polyester material 4-way-stretch spandex Soft elastic waist Suede texture chamois crotch Micro-injected logo Tag-less Spandex/ polyester/Poron XRD extreme impact protection material

RAD: Fits great. the shield never fogs. huge field of vision. always get compliments (bought the white model). visor is a good mix of long enough to block the sun, and short enough to keep drag down to a minimum.

SAD: loud as hell. drafty even when the vents are closed. pulls my head around like a cheap hooker if travelling over 75mph, but i have no fairings to break the wind.

overall, totally happy i own it. buy a different helmet if you deal with cold or wind.
